Even with the massive number of television stations and TV shows there still seems to be nothing to watch. Yet there are a few classic reruns that are almost always entertaining to watch:

“Bewitched” (1964-1972) A tale of a witch named Samantha, who married a mortal and is determined to give up magic but it seems to invade her life. From her intrusive spell-casting mother to her magically inclined children, Samantha’s life is invaded by odd occurrences and troubles caused by magic, though magic usually does fix the problems.

“I Dream of Jeannie” (1965-1970) An astronaut’s life becomes immensely more complicated when he comes into possession of a bottle containing a genie. Chaos ensues as Major Anthony Nelsen’s life is turned upside down by the magic cast by the genie in hopes of helping the Major.

“M*A*S*H” (1972-1983) The 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital is stuck in the middle of the Korean War. With little help, the circumstances they find themselves in, forces them to make their own fun. Fond of practical jokes and revenge, the doctors, nurses, administrators, and soldiers often find ways of making wartime life bearable. Nevertheless, the war goes on.

“Looney Tunes Comedy Hour” (1985) Classic cartoon characters, including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Yosemite Sam, Speedy Gonzales, and so many other beloved characters. They follow the comedy of this large group of characters and their classic punch lines.

Though these shows have long been over, they are still worth watching. So when there is nothing to watch on your numerous television channels, consider watching these classic television shows.
